Technical Chart

Technical Chart

The Technical Chart panel provides key details about our design created with RhinoArtisan.

The details are divided into four collapsible sections — each one only appears once the design has a cost for it:

Metal

This section displays, per metal used in the design, its weight and geometry. Elements linked to the Metal 01 layer in our layer system will be assigned the first metal available in the Outliner panel, while elements within the Metal 02 layer will be assigned the second metal listed in the Outliner.

The provided information includes:

• Net weight of the metal.
• Waste, the loss weight computed from the loss percentage defined in Breakdown Settings.
• Weight, the total weight including waste.
• Wax weight, allowing quick conversion to another metal if needed.
• Volume and surface area of the metal, useful for 3D printing according to Breakdown Settings configurations.

Gems

This section displays a list of diamonds used in the design, sorted by size. Each row shows the shape icon and lets you select the setting type (Prong, Pave, Channel, Flush, Bezel, Pressure, Wax, or Other) and the color coding (defined in the Artisan Options). Additionally, it details:

• Number of stones per size.
• Size of each stone.
• Corresponding sieve.
• Weight in carats (ct).

Processes

This section provides information about the manufacturing and finishing processes required for the piece, per metal:

• Printing size.
• Finishing, selectable between None, Brushed, Sandblasted, Hammered, or Other.
• Plating, selectable between None or Rhodium.

Below that, it lists the setting types used and the total number of stones per setting type (matching the choices made in the Gems section), plus additional processes: a free-form list of extra manufacturing steps you can add by name, with a right-click Delete on each and an Add… link at the bottom.

Extras

A separate section lists extra components, such as posts or pressure clasps for earrings. Like additional processes, it’s a free-form list: add a component by name with the Add… link, and remove one with a right-click Delete.

Data Export

The Export button at the top of the panel saves the current breakdown as a file, in one of two formats:

• Excel (.xlsx) – a structured spreadsheet, ideal for analysis, tracking, or additional calculations.
• JSON (.json) – the full breakdown object, intended for integrations with external applications, automations, or backend processes.
